Biliteracy Teachers' Self-Reflections of Their Accounts while Student Teaching Abroad: Speaking from "the Other Side"
Quezada, Reyes L.; Alfaro, Cristina
Teacher Education Quarterly, v34 n1 p95-113 Win 2007
In an article published in the "International Education Journal" entitled "Beyond Educational Tourism: Lessons Learned While Student Teaching Abroad," Quezada (2005) provides an overview of the literature regarding student teaching abroad experiences. This article summarizes his literature review and applies the findings to a study conducted by Alfaro (2003) about the experiences of four biliteracy teachers who participated in an international student teaching abroad program in Mexico and who are now teaching in the United States. The study focused on addressing the personal and professional dynamics biliteracy teachers negotiate in becoming teachers with a global perspective as a result of an international experience (Alfaro, 2003).
